Wiki Activity Module

The purpose of this page is to illustrate one way a wiki can be used to collaboratively create a student activity. For this demonstration a fictional user has posted their work under a Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 license. That initial material serves as the starting point for other editors to modify the activity in a variety of ways (specifying links to the OLPC Library and other educational resources, adding their own scholarship, suggesting ties into other activity modules and lesson plans). The result is a generally improved activity that also showcases the applicability of wikis for use in teaching knowledge and skills across the multiple academic disciplines of curricula.
